I think just about everybody has moved on.

Maybe I should move on and use Newfy as an example and quit playing in an empire or maybe since Guardians still seem to have some activity join the Guardians.

join the Guardians


You of course would be welcome to join the Guardians. This would still give you access to the Diplomatic Embassy since the Guardians "rent" space there as well, so all you old friends would still be around. You would also be welcome to attend SA meetings held weekly at the Crypt, snacks furnished by damoose and Newf cleans up afterwards.

tell me about it i wasn't around this weekend cause i went site seeing here in chicago got a bunch of nifty pics! will post them in my album at the embassy when i can get a friend to scan them for me

Great to hear from you Kazz! i was wondering where you had disappeared to in the weeks i was gone

Sorry I haven't been around. By next week I will be set in college and going to class, so things should be back to normal. I've been busier just cleaning the place up as to packing things, I've got far less than I thought I would have.

On a sadder note, I think my computer is dying as well. I've been setting up an old desktop to work as a backup, because my laptop seems to have been shutting itself down or locking itself up whenever you move it or put it or on any surface that does not leave the main fan exposed. I think I've got a cable wrong somewhere in the LCD, which explains the moving problem, and the heat sink does not seem to be working quite right. It costs too much to fix it to bother, at least $400. So I'll just try to get a new one, probably a desktop, after the holidays. The old desktop, it has a Pentium 3 800 MhZ. Pretty sad, and it seems the power supply is too old and weak to handle a 9200 64 MB Radeon chip. Also, it doesn't have a AGP port anyway, so it really isn't worth it. So my gaming may be quite limited for a few months, depending on what I can con my laptop into doing. But regardless I can still talk to you guys.

As for the forums, it does seem quite dead. I imagine it is mostly because the end of summer is here, and this game has pretty much reached its end. The forums are a bare place it seems, even ours. I can only hope it will renew itself for GC2. I will be around whenever I can though, I promise that.

I'll check in when I can guys, just letting you know I'm alive.

You can get a pretty good graphics card that is PCI from VGA with 128K memory for only around $100. Not the top of the line, but it works well. I got one for my wife's 1GHz Pentium 3 that doesn't have a AGP port.

Tech, come and join with me and we will keep an active empire going. I intend to stay with GC for now.

The sad thing is when looking at http://altmeta.galciv.org/rawempire.php Link (the empire raw scores) you can see that the number of players for each empire have been steadily dropping each month.

The CSF has 3 people that play infrequently 1 maybe 2 games per month. Out of 126 members that is not very active.

The only reason I left was I wanted to be part of an active empire. The problem is I do not feel I fit into other empires for various reasons.

Sure GC is old now but with the fresh version of AP just hitting the stores there should be a mild influx of new gamers coming.

I have posted a new thread in the General Forum as "Open Letters to Stardock - Plese Fix the Metaverse." Please go add your plea, suggestions, comments, etc. Ask them to respond, Let's see what they do.

You would both be welcome in the Guardians. But I would be just as happy to have another active empire around.

Done. But I am not sure if my view about the subject are shared with lots of people since I don't particulary feel that it needs to be fixed (it just needs regularly a global recalc)

A bit quiet this thread. Looks like everyone is involved in distant missions

One can hope - have you ever thought that you were alone in the universe?

Only when I'm sitting on the pooper with no T.P. Never seems to be another human being in existance at that moment.

Ok, I go away to college, and everyone seems to disappear. What has happened to everyone? Only Diplomats I've seen from embassy posts are Tech and Peace. What's happened?

I don't know. Looks like summer break is an horrible thing for online communities since the whole empire forum seems to be asleep.

well you know what's happened to me, i was hoping to get back to it sooner but finding a computer repair shop that's willing to do the soldering is tough, one guy straight out told me many don't like taking those riskier jobs where they may have to pay you if they cause more damamge
